Best Bet No. 1: Terry McLaurin Anytime TD (+160)

If you’re looking for a specific prop bet with excellent value, look no further than “Scary Terry.” Coming into SNF, the Commanders wideout is listed at +160 to score a touchdown at any point in the game.

From a sheer statistical and volume standpoint, McLaurin has a 30.8 percent target share along with a 27.3 percent end zone share since Taylor Heinicke took over under center for Washington. In their previous meeting, McLaurin had himself an afternoon, amassing eight receptions, 105 receiving yards, and a touchdown. The Giants have also struggled through the air in recent weeks, allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. I think we’re in line for another big night from the former Ohio State wideout. This one seems like a no-brainer. Lock in McLaurin to find the end zone at +160 as soon as you can, folks.

Best Bet No. 2: New York Giants +4.5 (-110)

For the second time in three weeks, the Commanders and Giants lock horns in what’s projected to be a close and highly-contested matchup in North Englewood. When the two sides met in Week 13, the game ended in a 20-20 tie at the Meadowlands. Since then, the Giants were blown out by the Eagles and would like nothing more than to stick it to their divisional foes.

I like the Commanders to win the game outright, especially coming off their bye week, but there’s certainly value in the Giants at +4.5. In addition, star running back Saquon Barkley looked excellent, driven, and focused in practice this week, which spells good news for Giants fans. Once again, I think we’re in for a treat on SNF that may even come down to the final possession. Take the G-men at +4.5.
